DANG! There was an "AHA!" moment for me in this video. I stopped using the alignment line on my ball because, as you say, it never looked right when I was over the putt; I just didn't trust it. It didn't occur to me that it WAS right, but that it just didn't look right because of where my eyes were in my stance.

This was an excellent video. When you realized the adjustment to the putter angle to the forearm was exactly opposite of what the instructor was seeing? BANG! Purple dust exploded from my head. I checked myself, used my phone to video my setup. Guilty. Putted for a bit in my living room at a dime. Vastly improved. Will be hitting the putting green soon to exercise some demons out of my putting.

Great video. Padraig Harrington had a great tip about big breaking putts. Given both putts hit the same, a putt missed on the low side will finish 3x as far away as a putt missed on the high side.
Mattie, the putter in chief!

Awesome video! I 100% agree about the mental video of making the putt. The days I really focus on that 'video' are the days I can't miss.

For anyone still reading, I took a putting lesson a year ago and found out the hard way that people see the line differently in their minds. Some people see a straight line to a target point that the ball falls off of, and others see a curved line that the ball follows all the way to the hole. Figure out which mental image you have and focus on it. It was another game changer for me.

Thx. Shaved 6 putts in 9 holes today. You have helped me enjoy golf, have realistic expectations and get better.

One of your all time finest performances. Great great video.

You are a guru now. I love your videos so much. I have improved so much and don't feel like a dumb ass just wacking balls all over the place. For course management and putting, I look nowhere else but to my baus's channel. Thank you!!!

Bro the formula one reference went dark fast ngl 💀 in all seriousness this video was such a good one. I think you’re really helping us amateurs and also a lot of youths get the right way of thinking down. Bought the golf is not a game of perfect because of you. Thanks for all the great videos.

[robscott]

Great video Baus Mattie… picked up the “hit to a tee” tip on one of your early videos and that has been such a game changer in my distance’ control. 👍🏻👍🏻

Asked about a putting video a few weeks ago and here it is! Thanks Boom Boom. The greens will be my kingdom after implementing this!

[johnwolf]

I love your videos because you are the only golf professional who talks about ways of improving the mental and psychological elements of the game. You can have the best swing in the world, but without the mindset and focus, golf rounds can go south very quickly. Thanks again.

[gabrielleroux]

mate, I could watch your videos all day long! as a fellow saffa, you make things so digestable!

[razzleg]

Great video. From Bob Rotella’s books I also like to pick a very small target within the hole, like a particular blade of grass. Somehow makes you feel like you can’t miss, and you start putting like a Baus 😎

I've always struggled with seeing the break differently once I stand over the ball. This video has me feeling more confidential already.

11:15 I returned to the game last year after a 20 year hiatus. Concentrating on distance control substantially more than the break now has really helped. On putts outside of 8 feet or so I'm 80% speed and 20% line. On longer putts it's pretty hard to misread the break by 10 feet but I see a lot of people miss the speed by that much.

Instead of practicing distance control towards a hole or a tee I putt towards the edge of the practice green. With no real left or right aim reference it really helps me concentrate only on the speed.

I'm far from the World's best putter but I'm much better now in the last 16 months than I was in the 10 years I had been playing back then.

A really good very informative video Matty. I got the audio book Bob Rotella, putting out of your mind and immediately improved my putting along with hours of 1 foot 3 foot and distance to the T peg all as recommended by yourself. You have improved my game 100% waddaplaya waddachannel thanks 🙏

Second time watching this. Best putting advice I have come across. Tried out some points yesterday and quickly seen great results. Brilliant.

[billtokunaga]

My first comment, although I have watched many of your videos...

You are dead on correct with this. The beauty of finding how your eyes have to be for YOU to see correctly with a putter stroke...will also carry through to alignment for every other club in the bag.

[Youba]

Excellent information Matt. Hearing the ball go in the hole I call plopish. Enjoying the channel.

[grasdaddy]

Man...the dropping of the hands and lining up with the arms, made a huge difference with aim and speed. Freakin amazing tip...!
